It’s the small things that makes the ‘real’ difference. Two months has passed by so quickly. Though it just seems like yesterday I moved from Luton to Penryn. It has been a learning experience. I feel I am completely moving in a different direction than initially planned. With so much confusion about what i want to do, I had reached a point when i just wanted to go to Nepal. But life had some other things stored in for me as we all know how unpredictable life can be. Things happen when you least expect or don’t plan out at all. Sometimes I keep wondering if I have lost myself or have I actually discovered myself.
When everything seemed wrong and hopes had failed, a ray of light showered upon me. With the grace of God, today I feel I am where I should be in order to pursue my career. I vividly remember that day, it was my graduation. Our guest of honour was the head of the forensic department in Luton. He made a remarkable speech which still lingers on my mind. It was overwhelming just to listen his life journey experience. His last words were how important small thing are in our life and how these small things can change your life forever. So never ignore ‘small things’. When he was about nineteen, he went through a newspaper and saw a vacancy for forensic and applied that very moment. Little did he know that he would be the head after 10 years. He is now where he is because of that decision he made. Something similar happened to me.
When I was struggling to decide where I wanted to study and what exactly I wanted to do with my career. Suddenly I came across this phrase in University College Falmouth‘s website“Would you like to travel to far-off countries and report on some of the world’s most important and exciting stories? Or maybe you see yourself breaking international news stories from a digital newsroom in London, Doha or New York?” This was it. When I first read this phrase, all I could do was picture myself. After reading this phase I couldn’t stop relating it to me. When I felt like I couldn’t decide what actually I wanted to do, it was that very moment I had read this and today I am there. What a coincidence!!! So it is very important to keep your eyes and mind open. It all depends on your decision YOU make in THAT very moment which can change your life FOREVER for BETTER or WORST. When I felt I was completely lost I actually found myself.
